Here is a quick post telling you how to distinguish between a potential wife, and someone who is not

A lot of wives ARE/ formal(er) jumpoffs. 

^^^former, you mean?

Sometimes former jumpoffs turn out to be the best wives because they've experienced that lifestyle and their over and done with it. Sometimes jumpoffs have the potential to be wives but won't waste their effort on sleazy guys (i.e. Ciara and 50 Cent lol) so Ms. Dark Skin you're absolutely right!

@ op,

Hardly prescriptive, as several variables are influenced by location-specific indicators.

Works better as a poem or rap.

Amen!! Hate to say it but we'd ALL be surprised if we learned what our elders (parents included) and lovers/spouses have experienced and experimented with in their youth! Some of the biggest h0es are now "wifey" to some square who swear they've got a saint.

there are no clear-cut rules to knowing a wife material.
As far as i'm concerned any woman can act or pretend to be wifey if/when they set their mind to it.

^^^so those phones are not so smart after all
@op. confessed jump-offs often make better wives!

no. Androids are actually dumb as hell. 

@topic sorry for the derailment. 
the line "can't turn a h03 into a housewife" is damn lie.

I think your right, but the question is how long should a man wait for her to get it right?

Can you live with the fact that your wife was once a jumpoff? You would be paranoid that she will revert to her old ways at anytime which could be good and bad. Good because it allows that man not to slip up, and bad because anytime your woman steps a foot out the house you're paranoid.

Good blog material, LOL

^^^I can actually live with it. I do not expect she'll go back, but if she does, really it's her life. . . .and we are going to sit down and talk about what's best for "us"!

Seems you are as tired of this ish as I am

Like Kanu, you are better off marrying a 17 year old virgin.

Good for him
